vim-header

Easily adds brief author info and license headers

Table of Contents

Install

Preferred installation method is Pathogen

cd ~/.vim/bundle
git clone https://github.com/alpertuna/vim-header

Or you can use your own way

Usage

This is a general usage example. You can add these lines into your .vimrc

let g:header_field_author = 'Your Name'
let g:header_field_author_email = 'your@mail'
map <F4> :AddHeader<CR>

Pressing F4 in normal mode will add a brief author information at the top of your buffer.

Examples

For example, when you open a file named start.sh and press F4 after above settings, plugin will add these lines at the top of your buffer

#!/bin/bash
# File: start.sh
# Author: Your Name <your@mail>
# Date: 13.03.2016
# Last Modified Date: 13.03.2016
# Last Modified By: Your Name <your@mail>

or for a file named index.php

<?php
/*
 * File: index.php
 * @author: Your Name <your@mail>
 * Date: 13.03.2016
 * Last Modified Date: 13.03.2016
 * Last Modified By: Your Name <your@mail>
